Forging A Sword Out Of 2000 Jolly Ranchers

in today's video we're going to see if it's possible to melt down

Jolly

Ranchers

and cast them into a functioning

sword

guys what's up we're here with Nikki ojas he is joining us today for some fun experiments and Bill's we've done stuff with

Jolly

Ranchers

before I think this is more

Jolly

Ranchers

than we've used before the idea was this is that like a sucker is essentially the same type of candy with like a little paper stick right in the bottom of it so I

thought like what if we super-sized that instead of making a sucker we make a giant

sword

and so as a fan of Final Fantasy 7 I heard you were too Kelly just a little bit he brought us the Buster

Sword

guys this is gonna be awesome here's the basic idea we're here with Nicky Hoss you thought it would be a really fun idea to see if we could cast

Jolly

Ranchers

into a

sword

so he's got a

sword

mold and we've got a bunch of

Jolly

Ranchers

we'll see if we can melt him down and

make a new fun shape out of them so we actually made a mold out of wood and it has like a little stick in it just like how an actual sucker would assuming that the

Jolly

Rancher like at that volume will hang on to the stick but as you know when the science things don't always go right so we're gonna start off with a smaller version right yeah yeah I think what we're gonna try and do is you know the idea is we're gonna have a

sword

and it's gonna be big but I think we're

gonna start off and try and make like a knife out of melted

Jolly

Rancher melted and cast

Jolly

Ranchers

and if that survives then we're going to scale it up yeah we'll go up from there a

jolly

dagger I think we should get some

Jolly

Ranchers

melting okay so I can work on a mold you guys can just enjoy your smelting them don't ask questions this is gonna take a long time so we're gonna do for the mold for the knife we just have a bunch of clay here flatten some of this out kind

of vague knife shape out of it maybe use a little bit of oil to make it so it will release and then we're just gonna put a

Jolly

Rancher into that knife shape I think we're gonna just try and sharpen it afterward by like melting a blade into it I think we're gonna have to start opening things guys Nate in the past will sometimes by hundreds of something this is 17 or something we have been known to go quite large on our channel this is gonna be great got a bunch unwrapped here

I'm just gonna take some start these melting down to make our little dagger helping that's probably enough all right got that on the stove I'll try and keep an eye on that there you got ready we'll pour that off into the dagger mold good job we got a girl

jolly

diagonal it's looking pretty good heck yeah knife mold is now ready so just got our melted candy I'm you're poor didn't fill it up and hopefully it will flow nicely and then cool down into a dagger also

hopefully it will come off of the the tray and the clay both of which have been oiled at this point but you know candy does some weird things sometimes we definitely had more candy than necessary for this size of dagger that's all right now we'll just let that cool down and then we'll see if it D molds and we'll see if we can sharpen it a little bit somehow that's a lot of

Jolly

Ranchers

some of them we already melted down yep into some knives those are cooling right now and

I'm pretty excited about how that's going I'm just gonna start with I'll start with that thanks guys three vats of molten candy ready to go hmm well turns out if the surface you're trying to tape to is specifically designed and not to have things stick to it I mean I think this is great I think we're ready I think we are good all right Moulton candy ready I love it ready oh that's a good for who's that for well that's a great for fair or someone you know

it's it's like a rich mahogany more like strawberry it's like the rich oh I remember how I said I was gonna do that get over there and hold that I don't want your arm there I'm still pouring but I got more to do we need wait we just not gonna mall I'll hold it down Kelly you get the rest okay I'm gonna keep pouring this because as soon as I started pushing on to it like it stopped flowing out so I think that pushing it down is making enough of us I'm going to

continue to add molten hot stuff to the stuff you're trying to keep him play to all doesn't burn your hand oh your your limit you're actually gonna hit is like right here and down there at the hilt you're about to be as full as it can get so I think we're there for for quantity really good big measuring Nick let's see if they deem olden if they come off of our oiled pans and off of the clay I think this is it looks like it's coming off the clay really easily that and

no trouble whatsoever now the oil on the metal oh wait hang on that worked out pretty darn well yeah okay oh well a

jolly

dagger dagger a

jolly

lolly - oh never mind it's like a popsicle it tastes a little bit like clay and a little bit like avocado oil and a little bit like

Jolly

Rancher like my hand has probably never been stickier no this is 100% candy but I was going for it so take this little pocket of clay out there there are hints of spray oil and blade that's all right yep they

didn't break though so watermelon flavored

Jolly

Rancher knife attacking an actual watermelon I'm just gonna see you yeah sorry the

jolly

dagger I'm gonna see if I can stab this into a watermelon so watermelon

Jolly

dagger versus watermelon the actual proof yep which watermelon one both all right three two one and goodbye it left sort of an indentation Wow all right let's do the

sword

yeah I think the

sword

is cooled down it should it's been overnight and so now we're

going to de mold it and try attacking some stuff with it I think there's gonna be a little bit of cleanup not a ton but right here yeah there's some flashing it's spilled over there and then it like he's going up the edge a little bit from I don't know if that was from surface tension or like cooled and shrunk a little bit and like left some behind either way there will be some clean there's also that's really like interesting like eye of Jupiter kind of thing going

on here and it's very hurricane like and I think that was because as the hot

Jolly

Rancher was rising it was just kind of billowing out and it created these perfect little almost like hurricane spots throughout the

sword

but I you know what I think that's just adding magic to the

sword

itself we're gonna call them fierce hurricane spots perfect well look at that Wow right oh wow oh my gosh Wow so the bubble situation because of the angle okay with it Wow okay a hot knife is going to

take this oh my lord it worked so well can I just try to where we could just hit it with that you are playing a dangerous game sir and winning he has no fear and I kind of wish you did how lightweight is that it is reasonable it is really really heavy it like actually makes me nervous every time it kind of tips to the side just the hair but you won't be able to correct yeah exact track this you know I'm like scared I'm so scared that I'm just going to be like Boop and then

I'm just gonna crack in a million pieces alright so just to recap Kelly's gonna throw some jello for test number one you're losing jello oh my gosh ready yeah three two one huh it hit the

sword

look there's a little bit of jello on it totally cut the jello no problem the jello we're gonna do a blood test and we're gonna see if we can at least get like a little bit of this

sword

through the watermelon one two three yes okay it definitely stabbed won't puncture a

watermelon like very easily there's a lot of momentum because there's so much weight behind this then for our third test and we're gonna see if we could actually chop through the watermelon three two one up cracked massively but it didn't shatter apart what happened is it's like it hit but then it bounced when you split it and drove it on to the cinder block a lot I just I just chopped it again right here just go back into it Wow and the best part is we still have some of

this sort of left oh that was beautiful I fractured all along the stick in the middle oh that was great that was impressive thanks to Nick for joining us for this fantastic video and for helping build this phenomenal

Jolly
